2.2 Application / Arduino UNO Interface
The Cinterion
®
Connect Shield uses a few Arduino ONE interface signals, and it is possible to
combine the Connect Shield with other Arduino shields. To occupy as few signals as possible,
the Connect Shield output lines PWR_IND, RING, and CTS are connected to the Arduino in-
terface via output resistors, thus enabling these signals for a further usage, for example be-
tween the Arduino and another sensor shield. In this case the Arduino’s or sensor shield’s pin
drive strength must be higher than 5mA to overrule the Connect Shield’s output.
